Figure 6.18. Spectrum of O 3 Mn(OH) ( ) in argon-purged 0.025 M phosphate, 0.1 M
ethanol, pH 4, spectrum of MnO 2− (solid curve) in 0.1 M NaOH, and Mn(VI) adduct
spectra of the • −
CO 2 radical ( ) in N 2 O-saturated 2 mM formate and of the tert -butyl
alcohol radical ( ) in N 2 O-saturated 0.1 M tert -butyl alcohol solution at pH 9.4 (≈1 mM
borate buffer). These spectra recorded 2-10 µs after the pulse. The inset shows the pH
dependence of the Mn(VI) extinction coefficient at 610 nm in 0.025 M phosphate buffer,
0.1 M ethanol (adapted from Rush and Bielski [183] with the permission of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society).

The solid line in the inset of Figure 6.18 was calculated using the p K 62 value
of 7.4 [183]. The kinetics of the disproportionation of the MnO 2− ion in acidic
solution has been performed [193]. The decay of the MnO 2− ion followed a
pseudo-first-order rate law, which resulted in the formation of MnO ion. The
formation of the permanganate ion obeyed second-order kinetics.
The spectra of Mn(V) under different conditions are presented in Figure
6.19 [183]. It is clear from Figure 6.19a that the spectra were sensitive to pH
in the range of 0.01-10.0 M NaOH. This sensitivity was utilized to estimate the
acid dissociation constant of Mn(V):

The spectrum of the Mn(V) ester was also obtained by reducing Mn(VI)
by tert -butyl radicals (Fig. 6.19b) [183]. In the reduction process, an intermedi-
ate ( A ) was initially formed, which subsequently decayed by first order to the
final product of Mn(V) ( B ):
